IDF Frees Two Hostages in Rafah In Daring Operation
Fernando Marman and Louis Har were rescued by the IDF from captivity in Rafah, and have since been reunited with their families.


The IDF issued a joint statement with the Shin Bet and the Israel Police today (Monday) announcing that Israel had freed two hostages being held in Rafah. The condition of the hostages was good and they were sent to the Sheba Medical Center, where they have reunited with their families.
The hostages, Fernando Marman and Louis Har, had been kidnapped from their home in Nir Yitzhak on October 7 and had been held in Hamas captivity ever since.
The IDF Spokesperson said Israeli forces will continue to do everything to bring the hostages home.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu echoed the sentiment, saying: "Fernando and Louis, welcome home.
I salute our brave fighters for the daring action that led to their release. Only continued military pressure, until total victory, will bring about the release of all of our hostages.
We will not miss any opportunity to bring them home."
The IDF Spokesperson released this footage of the hostages reuniting with their families:
